Community Engagement

Central WV Crisis Pregnancy Center

Description: The Central West Virginia Center for Pregnancy Care freely acknowledges to the client and the community that it places value upon all human life, from conception onward. The purpose of the CWVCPC is to help a woman who is in a state of crisis to understand and work through the alternatives, enabling her to make an informed decision concerning the outcome of her pregnancy. Further, the Center seeks to provide support to all parties involved. For the woman who decides to carry her baby to term, the CWVCPC will provide emergency aid in whatever form is available and needed. The aim is to restore the woman to a normal level of coping, or to help her move from a state of crisis to a state of being in control of her life.

The Central West Virginia Center for Pregnancy Care committed to Christian action, especially in regard to the prevention of abortion; therefore, the CWVCPC directs attention to the positive alternative of crisis pregnancy prevention. In addition to helping the pregnant woman in a state of crisis, the CWVCPC will offer programs in the community, including teen sexuality programs, encouraging and instructing those Christian virtues of abstinence and the sanctity of the marriage relationship. In addition, the CWVCPC may offer education to the public on abortion to enable parents to better cope with and promote healthy sexual development in their children, and to work directly with teens and pre-teens in examining and developing healthy Christian lifestyles.
